Just to throw the cat amongst the pidgeons :p I prefer Sygate (http://smb.sygate.com/products/spf_standard.htm).

Anyone else get and take advantage of the ZoneAlarm"Plus" offer?
Still not as good as ZA PRO but gives a bit more than the standard freebie.

I found that Outpost Free Version (http://www.agnitum.com/products/outpost/) uses less reasources but I haven't compared it to the newest version of Zone Alarm.

The free version of Zone Alarm is pretty good.
Get it at www.zonelabs.com

I'm using ZA free. I used Sygate for a whlie but I dropped them cuz of the loopback problem they have and never fixed yet. If you're using a local proxy like Proxomiltron.
